Display Running Tasks

[marcohald]

What is the idea ?

It would be great to have and additional Status called "running" for the Tasks in a Playbook.
That is then replaced by the actual result of the Task.
As far as I understand the Plugin Code the state of a Task is only reported when a Task is finished.
It should be possible by adding a request to the api here

ara/ara/plugins/callback/ara_default.py

Line 583 in 428c2bd

def v2_runner_on_start(self, host, task):

My Use-case would be that I have an update playbook that has multiple long running Tasks that tend to hang on some hosts.
It runs with the host_pinned strategy and the output is to crowded to keep an overview on the console.
It would be great if the running status could be filtered like OK or Failed on the WebUI

I'm happy to try to implement it, but I want to hear some Opinions first if that makes Sense
